Hi fellow enthusiasts,

I have a blown foglight lamp and was looking for replacements. Due to the halogen foglight lamps being notoriously bad for having a short life span, and also due to me being the tinkering type, I am considering installing a HID conversion kit instead. Being an electrical engineer who does a lot with lighting, I am familiar with most of the technical aspects, however I was wondering whether anyone has had any actual experience with the conversion kits that are available?

I do not want to buy rubbish, I want to make sure what I'm buying is good quality and is going to last. The kits I have seen on Amazon.com are from JLM and Kensun. They sound Korean or something, which does concern me a little, but I have been unable to find anything from the big name european manufacturers like Osram or Philips.

All informed feedback and comments are appreciated.
